[W3af-users] Blocked scan error database

2015-02-19 Thread Miguel Ángel Martínez Martínez
Hallo!,

I am a beginner user regarding W3af. I am scanning several external web pages 
with the following configuration:

profile: full_audit / OWASP_TOP10
max_requests_per_second: 2

1. The scan of a specific web page takes a lot to finish and in the end, this 
error happens:

Database disk image is malformed

As a result, the html report has no content.

2. The scan of another web page finishes very quickly (it takes less than a 
minute), but I am afraid that it's being blocked.

**IMPORTANT** The following error was detected by w3af and couldn't be 
resolved: w3af found too many consecutive errors while performing HTTP 
requests. In most cases this means that the remote web server is not reachable 
anymore, the network is down, or a WAF is blocking our tests. The last error 
message was HTTP timeout error after 10.0 seconds.

How can I try to evade the system that is blocking the test?

Thanks  regards.

That's REALLY LOW, 2 requests per second is going to slow down the
scan horribly.

 1. The scan of a specific web page takes a lot to finish and in the end,
 this error happens:

Are you able to reproduce this every time you run the scan? If so,
please follow this [0] guide to report a bug with all the info we'll
need to fix it

 As a result, the html report has no content.

If it finishes so quickly the remote system might be blocking
connections based on the user agent, you can try to change that in
w3af's configuration.

 Thanks  regards.
